Improved GOA-based fuzzy PI speed control of PMSM with predictive current regulation. by Taochang Li, Ang Li, Limin Hou

“…Additionally, to address the high torque and current ripple issues commonly associated with traditional PI controllers in the current loop, Model Predictive Control (MPC) is adopted to further improve control performance. …”

Qualification of TRACE V5.0 Code against Fast Cooldown Transient in the PKL-III Integral Test Facility by Eugenio Coscarelli, Alessandro Del Nevo, Francesco D'Auria

“…This leads to a strong asymmetry caused by an increase of the heat transfer from the primary to the secondary side that induces a fast cooldown transient on the primary side-affected loop. The asymmetric overcooling effect requires an assessment of the reactor pressure vessel integrity considering PTS (pressurized thermal shock) and an assessment of potential recriticality following entrainment of colder water into the core area. …”

Stabilization and Synchronization of Uncertain Zhang System by Means of Robust Adaptive Control by J. Humberto Pérez-Cruz

“…However, in the presence of unmodeled dynamics and/or disturbance, this approach is not effective anymore due to the drift of the parameter estimations, which eventually causes the instability of the closed-loop system. In this paper, a robustifying term, which consists of a saturation function, is used to avoid this problem. …”

Contemporary experience of education digitalization by V. V. Godin, A. E. Terekhova

“…The authors use as a tool of studying the impact of the information and communication technologies on educational institutions and on a learning process the idea of a value chain and employees routine loops reflection in it. The study highlights three areas in which information and communication technologies are changing educational organizations: pedagogics, infrastructure, and organization. …”

Displacement and Force Control of a Quarter Car Using a Mixed Mode MR Mount by Shuo Wang, Mohammad Elahinia, The Nguyen

“…The experiments were set up to facilitate the hardware-in-the-loop evaluation of the mount. Results from the experiments showed that the mixed mode MR fluid mount was able to achieve desired dynamic stiffness profile to minimize the dual-transmissibility criterion.…”

The First Galaxies and the Likely Discovery of Their Fossils in the Local Group by Massimo Ricotti

“…The answers depend on the extent to which star formation in the first population of small mass halos may be suppressed by radiative feedback loops. If early populations of dwarf galaxies did form in significant number before reionization, their “fossils” should be found today in the Local Group. …”

A Comparative Study of Nonsingular Terminal Sliding Mode and Backstepping Schemes for the Coupled Two-Tank System by Safa Choueikh, Marwen Kermani, Faouzi M’sahli

“…It is proved that the designed robust controllers guarantee the stability of the corresponding closed loop systems. The obtained results are verified with the same setup test to ensure a suitable basis for their comparison. …”

EPISTEMOLOGY IN THE CONTEXT OF THE MODERN BIOLOGICAL EVOLUTIONAL PARADIGM by О. S. Tokovenko

“…The article concludes that together with the idea of hyper cycles (feedback loop with mutual transmission of information in cognitive process) the concept of ratiomorphic cognitive backgrounds, as well as attempts to examine cognitive processes based on the scientific criteria (empirical verification, explanatory power and ability to predict) should be certainly considered as a positive contribution to the development of evolutionary epistemology into modern epistemological research. …”

Perturbatively exact supersymmetric partition functions of ABJM theory on Seifert manifolds and holography by Junho Hong

“…Through holographic duality, our perturbatively exact result is successfully matched with the regularized on-shell action of a dual Euclidean AdS4-Taub-Bolt background incorporating 4-derivative corrections, and also provides valuable insights into the logarithmic corrections that emerge from the 1-loop calculations in M-theory path integrals. In this process, we revisit the Euclidean AdS4-Taub-Bolt background carefully, elucidating the flat connection in the background graviphoton field. …”

A Multiconstrained Ascent Guidance Method for Solid Rocket-Powered Launch Vehicles by Si-Yuan Chen, Qun-Li Xia

“…Then, constraints, such as terminal height, velocity, flight path angle, and angle of attack, are converted into the constraints within height-time profile according to the second-stage rocket flight characteristics. The closed-loop guidance method is inferred by different spline curves given the different terminal constraints. …”

Application of Third-Order Schemes to Improve the Convergence of the Hardy Cross Method in Pipe Network Analysis by Majid Niazkar, Gökçen Eryılmaz Türkkan

“…This obviously indicates that the modified schemes, particularly the three-step methods, improve the performance of the original loop corrector method by taking lower number of iterations with the compensation of relatively more computational efforts.…”

Hybrid Robust H2/H∞ Fault-Tolerant Control with Random Delay NCS by Jun Wang, Miaomiao Ling

“…The problem of less conservatism of robust generalized H2/H∞ hybrid fault-tolerant control is studied. Firstly, a closed-loop fault model of the system with random delay parameters was established according to the Bernoulli 0-1 distribution; all possible prior faults are divided into a few intervals according to certain rules, and then an interval fault-tolerant controller is designed off-line according to the prior faults of each interval. …”

Low-loss on-chip superconducting microwave circulator assisted by shunting capacitors by N. Pradeep Kumar, Dat Thanh Le, Prasanna Pakkiam, Thomas M. Stace, Arkady Fedorov

“…In our previous work, we implemented such a circulator using a three-Josephson-junction loop that exhibited unambiguous nonreciprocity and signal circulation, but required junction energies to be within 1% of design values. …”

Damage Assessment in a SiC-fiber reinforced Ceramic Matrix Composite by Konstantinos G. Dassios, Theodore E. Matikas

“…Imposition of successive unloading/reloading loops was found to result in an increase by 20% in material strength as compared to pure tension; the observed increase is attributed to energy dissipation from large-scale interfacial debonding phenomena that dominated the post-elastic tensile behaviour of the composite. …”
